Discussing how developers should pay more attention to what fans are saying/what they want instead of dismissing them entirely.
While Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale didn't get the best review, there are still some aspects of the game that deserve some credit.
Though PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale is a bit of a cult classic, it could have been a big hit if it launched in 2022 instead of 2012.
It wouldn't have mattered, Sony would've rushed it out and left it to die. More so now than before with their focus now being on SP narrative driven AAA games.
Oh, but somehow Smash Bros. 64 made it work?
It just couldn’t compete with Smash Bros. and it wasn’t a free-to-play game like Multiversus.
I think it released at the right time. It's just after the success of Smash and Multiversus, it's finally time for a sequel.
I'd be all in on a remake or remaster of the original. I enjoyed it because I didn't sit there and compare every aspect to SSB. I just enjoyed it as it was.
Sony should make part 2 and dump a good amount of money on it. Scrap super only kills and it's bound to succeed.
God of War: Ragnarok has plenty of fun references to PlayStation history, but now fans have discovered a conversation that calls back to PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale — the crossover fighting game released for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita.
That’s interesting. It actually does make it canon lol. He mentioned it in a mainline game. I’d say that’s pretty cool.
Great bloody article...some one gets it
"That is where SuperBot went wrong. PSASBR is the fan service game the fans were asking for. The fans wanted a game with their favourite characters that helped to define the Playstation brand; they didn’t want characters they didn’t like or that had no part in making Playstation a successful brand."
<applauds>
SuperBot has been listening to the fans more than ANY developer! What are you people talking about?!? I'm in the beta. Every single question we ask them gets a response. They listen to us.
Im gonna bet Old Dante is gonna be a alt costume every character in the game will have 1 preorder costume and 2 alt costumes. I bet for Raiden it will be Bishounen/Naked Raiden from mgs 2 and Gray fox from MGS.
The Spyro pic has already been debunked its fake.
We can all keep ranting on how we want Old Dante as main costume but its not gonna happen thats a fact. Who knows maybe Capcom is pissed cause Sony nabbed Seth Killian.
@Tron I think the reason Big daddy is in, is because Ken Levine probably asked for it plus he wrote the story for big daddy in pasbr which is just freaking awesome.
I don't see what they're complaining about. They still get Dante. What about Old Snake or even Big Boss? Looks like Raiden will end up replacing them so instead of getting a character you love, you get the worse character to ever appear in Metal Gear instead.
Great article!
Just like everything in life, these video game developers need to remember to put the gamers first and then the money. When you put money first, bad things happen.
